Irak4 inhibiting agents

ABSTRACT

Provided are compounds of Formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and methods for their use and production.

RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/026,214, filed Jul. 18, 2014, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

Provided are certain agents that inhibit IRAK4, and methods of making and using such agents.

Cellular immune responses depend on the ability of immune cells (e.g., macrophages, natural killer cells, T-cells) to detect and respond to cues in the extracellular environment by transmitting (transducing) signals across the cell membrane and into the intracellular (cytoplasmic) environment. Signals transmitted across the cell membrane may then effect a variety of “downstream” cytoplasmic and nuclear signal transduction pathways that subsequently produce a variety of immune cell responses (for example up- or down-regulation of gene transcription and translation or by releasing cytoplasmically stored components into the extracellular environment).

One cytoplasmic molecule responsible for the transmission of such downstream signals is known as “IRAK4”. IRAK4 functions in cytoplasmic signal transduction pathways by interacting with components (“adaptor proteins”) associated with the cytoplasmic portion of the Interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R), Interleukin-18 receptor (IL-18R), and Toll-Like receptors (TLRs). These receptors (ILRs and the vertebrate TLRs) play important roles in innate immunity (i.e., general, non-specific immune system mechanisms of defense). In particular, TLRs play important roles in responding to microbial pathogens. TLRs are capable of eliciting a generalized immune response to pathogens via recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). In response to such PAMPs, IL-1R/TLR signal transduction is initiated, across the cell membrane, by recruiting cytoplasmic adaptor proteins. Such adaptor proteins interact with homologous Toll/IL-1R (TIR) domains located in the cytoplasmic portion of IL-1R/TLR receptors.

The importance of adaptor proteins to immune system function is well established, as elimination of such adaptor proteins has been shown to induce significant disruptions of innate immune responses. Some examples of known IL-1R/TLR adaptor proteins are: MyD88; TIRAP/Mal; Trif/Ticam; and TRAM. MyD88, in particular, has a modular “death domain” (DD) that functions to recruit IRAK family proteins such as IRAK4. IRAK4 is thought to associate with MyD88 via IRAK4's own death domain. Moreover, loss of IRAK4/MyD88 association disrupts IL-1R/TLR signal transduction by preventing IRAK4 from phosphorylating (i.e., activating) IRAK1. Biologically, IRAK4 has been demonstrated to play a critical role in innate immunity.

Scarring of the internal organs is a major global health problem, which is the consequence of subclinical injury to the organ over a period of time or as the sequela of acute severe injury or inflammation. All organs may be affected by scarring and currently there are few therapies the specifically target the evolution of scarring. Increasing evidence indicates that scarring per se provokes further decline in organ function, inflammation and tissue ischemia. This may be directly due the deposition of the fibrotic matrix which impairs function such as in contractility and relaxation of the heart and vasculature or impaired inflation and deflation of lungs, or by increasing the space between microvasculature and vital cells of the organ that are deprived of nutrients and distorting normal tissue architecture. However recent studies have shown that myofibroblasts themselves are inflammatory cells, generating cytokines, chemokines and radicals that promote injury; and myofibroblasts appear as a result of a transition from cells that normally nurse and maintain the microvasculature, known as pericytes. The consequence of this transition of phenotype is an unstable microvasculature that leads to aberrant angiogenesis, or rarefaction.

Example 599 Biochemical Assay:

The biochemical assay is in a AlphaScreen format. The kinase reaction is based on the IRAK-4 phosphorylation of a biotin labeled peptide. The phosphopeptide is incubated with anti-phosphothreonine antibody as well as streptavidin- and protein A-coated beads. Binding of the protein-A coated beads to the antibody and the streptavidin beads to the peptide, leads to an energy transfer from one bead to the other, ultimately producing a luminescent/fluorescent signal.

Generally, the kinase reaction is carried out at 1 nM IRAK4, 1.6 μM peptide, 1 mM ATP in reaction buffer 50 mM Hepes, 60 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.25 mM MnCl2, 2 mM DTT, 0.01% BSA, 0.01% Tween-20) for 3.5 h at RT.

Example 600—IRAK4 Inhibits Injury Responses in Human and Mouse Fibroblasts

Primary mouse kidney fibroblasts were treated for 24 hours with 10 ng/ml recombinant IL-1β (FIG. 1 (a)) or 100 ng/ml ultrapure LPS (FIG. 1 (b)). Inflammatory responses were measured by detection of secreted IL-6 in supernatants using ELISA. Both IL-1β induced Interleukin-1 Receptor responses and LPS-induced Toll-like Receptor responses are mediated by MyD88 and they showed significantly decreased activation in the presence of one of the exemplified compounds (“IRAK4 inhibitor”) in the dose-dependent manner (FIGS. 1 (a) and (b)).

Primary human kidney fibroblasts were stimulated with a variety of treatments that model injury in vitro: kidney Danger Associated Molecular Patters, or DAMPs, 10 ng/ml TGFβ or 10 μg/ml histones. Inflammatory responses measured by expression of Il6 and Ccl2 using qPCR as well fibroblast activation as indicated by TGFβ-induced Acta2 expression measured by qPCR or histone-induced migration (scratch wound assays, See Methods as described below) were reduced in the presence one of the exemplified compounds (“IRAK4 inhibitor”). These data presented in the table below demonstrate that the IRAK4 inhibitor is able to efficiently inhibit injury responses (e.g., Il6 expression, Ccl2 expression, Acta2 expression, and migration) in human fibroblasts.

Example 601—Inhibition of IRAK4 Reduces Inflammation, Tubular Damage and Extracellular Matrix Deposition in Mouse Models of Ischemic Kidney Injury (IRI)

To evaluate the effect of IRAK4 inhibitor on fibrotic kidney disease mice, were subjected to ischemic kidney injury (IRI) and a subgroup was treated with one of the exemplified compounds (“IRAK4 inhibitor”). On Day 7 of the study mice were sacrificed and their kidneys were collected. Kidney RNA was isolated and used to quantify the expression of fibrotic disease and inflammation markers by qPCR. Mice that received a treatment showed significant protection from disease as indicated by reduced expression pro-inflammatory cytokines Il1β (FIG. 2 (a)) and Il18 (FIG. 2 (b)), kidney tubular damage marker Havcr1 (FIG. 2 (c)) and extracellular matrix Collagen1 (Colla1)(FIG. 2 (d)).

Methods for Examples 600 and 601 Pericyte Purification and Culture.

Mouse pericytes were purified from normal kidneys of wild-type C57BL/6 by magnetic affinity cell sorting system (Miltenyi Biotech) as described previously.¹ Human pericytes were purified from fetal human kidneys obtained following voluntary pregnancy interruptions (d110 to d130 of gestation) performed at the University of Washington Medical Center, (IRB447773EA University of Washington) or from Novogenix, Los Angeles, Calif. as described.² Informed consents for the use of fetal tissues were obtained from all patients. The single cell preparation was depleted of epithelial cells by passing through an anti-CD326 magnetic bead Column (Miltenyi Biotech). Pericytes were further sorted as PDGFRP (300 gg/ml, Biolegend, Cat. No. 323608) and NG2 (R&D, Cat. No. FAB2585F) positive populations. Pericytes were cultured in pericyte medium as described¹ on 0.2% gelatin-coated plates. Purity of pericyte cultures was confirmed by FACS to represent >90% PDGFRβ+populations free of CD45+, CD326+ or CD31+ cells. All pericytes were studied at low passages (below passage 5).

Cell Culture Assays

Pericytes (P3-P5) were cultured in 6-well gelatin-coated plates at a density of 4*10⁵ cells/mL for 24 h in pericyte medium. Cells were then washed five times with PBS and cultured overnight in serum-free pericyte medium followed by the following treatments:

-   -   ultrapure LPS (100 ng/mL) from Invivogen, IL-13 (10 ng/mL) from         Peprotech, histones (10 μg/ml) or 10-20% kidney DAMPs.     -   Migration was evaluated in a wound healing scratch assay in         96-well plates using IncuCyte from Essen BioScience.

Quantification of Secreted Proteins

Secreted proteins were collected in cell culture supernatants as described.³ Secreted IL-6 was measured by ELISA (R&D systems).

DAMPs Preparation

IRI and healthy kidney DAMPs were collected 24 hours post-surgery under sterile conditions using methods as described.³ Histones (Worthington Biochemical) were used at a final concentration of 10 μg/ml.

Animals and Animal Studies

Foxd1^(+/Cre); Myd88^(fl/fl) mice on the C57BL6 genetic background were generated by crossing female Foxd^(1+/Cre); Myd88^(+/flox) mice with male Myd88^(flox/flox) mice. Myd88^(flox/flox) mice were obtained from Jackson Labs (CBy. 1129P2(B6)-Myd88tm1Defr/J). Foxd1^(+/Cre) were generated as described.⁴ Experimental mice were identified by PCR to identify the floxed allele and the Cre insertion at the Foxd1 locus using primers as described.⁵ Kidney ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) studies were performed as described.⁶ Mice were euthanized at either 24 hours or 5 days post-surgery. All studies were performed under protocols approved by Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees at the University of Washington, Center for Infectious Disease Research, or Biogen.

Quantitative RT-PCR

Total RNA was extracted using RNeasy Plus Mini Kit (Qiagen). Purity was determined by the A260 to A280 ratio. cDNA was synthesized using oligo(dT) and random primers (iScript Reverse Transcription Supermix, BioRad). Quantitative PCR was performed using QuantStudio™ 7 Flex Real-Time PCR System (Life Technologies), TaqMan® Gene Expression Assays using manufacturer's instructions (Life Technologies). The specific Taqman probe sets used in Q-PCR are listed below (Life Technologies). All values were normalized to Gapdh.
